“Cardboard cutouts” action

On December 20, 2008, seven young women from the San Francisco Bay Area took to San Francisco’s Powell BART station to speak out about negative media messages and receive positive support from their community. They created cardboard cutouts of their bodies and asked passers-by to write something positive on the cutouts about the girls’ inner or outer beauty.
